The findings of the study revealed that factors that influenced the L2 Chinese multilinguals' speech performance and their development of such an ability included the following (1) age of acquisition, cognitive fluency, learning styles, and speaking strategies; (2) motivation, anxiety, speaking self-efficacy, and willingness-to-communicate; (3) L2 cultural interest, L2 communities, and L2 classes; and (4) multilingualism. We conclude that the development of L2 Chinese speech production ability could be the result of the synergies gained from the cognitive, affective, and socio-cultural dimensions of L2 learning and use. Insights into L2 Chinese teachers and learners in terms of how to support and sustain the improvement of L2 Chinese speech production ability are also discussed.

Nevertheless, there are few evidence-based instruments that validate the effectiveness of simulation learning in mainland China. Methods The Simulation Learning Effectiveness Inventory (SLEI) was adapted and validated for use in this study. Psychometric evaluation, incorporating classical test theory and item response theory (IRT) methods, was performed with 533 third-year undergraduate nursing students who were recruited from May 2017 to July 2018. Results The findings of exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses revealed that the simplified Chinese version of the SLEI (SLEI-SC) was composed of six factors, namely, course arrangement, equipment resource, debriefing, clinical ability, problem solving, and confidence, which explained 60.84% of the total variance. The Cronbach's α, MIIC, marginal reliability, and test-retest reliability values obtained for the total scale were 0.88, 0.38, 0.96, and 0.88, respectively. Furthermore, the difference between the total scores for learning effectiveness pre- and post-course was statistically significant (t = 2.59, p less then 0.05, Cohen's d = 0.60). IRT analysis showed that the SLEI-SC discriminates well between students with high and low levels of learning effectiveness and offers information about a broad range of learning effectiveness measures. The relationship between final course grade and total score on the SLEI-SC was statistically significant (r = 0.63, p less then 0.05). Conclusion We demonstrated initial psychometric evidence and support for the 31-item SLEI-SC as a developmentally appropriate instrument for assessing the learning effectiveness of all phases of HFS use with nursing students.

Recently, the quantification of text data using advanced natural language processing techniques offers innovative opportunities to map people's own words and narratives to their responses to self-reports. Here, we demonstrate the usefulness of self-descriptions in natural language and what we tentatively call Quantitative Semantic Test Theory (QuSTT) to validate two short inventories that measure character traits. Method In Study 1, participants (N 1 = 997) responded to the Short Character Inventory, which measures self-directedness, cooperativeness, and self-transcendence. In Study 2, participants (N 2 = 2373) responded to Short Dark Triad, which measures Machiavellianism, narcissism, and psychopathy. In both studies, respondents were asked to generate 10 self-descriptive words. We used the Latent Semantic Algorithm to athy, whereas "shy" or "introvert" indicated low narcissism. We also found specific keywords that unify or that make the individuals in some profiles unique. Conclusion Despite being short, both inventories capture individuals' identity as expected. Nevertheless, our method also points out some shortcomings and overlaps between traits measured with these inventories. We suggest that self-descriptive words can be quantified to validate measures of psychological constructs (e.g., prevalence in self-descriptions or QuSTT) and that this method may complement traditional methods for testing the validity of psychological measures.

Using the methods of conversation analysis, this paper explores how a client's upsetting experience is managed over the course of a single session of client-centered therapy. The main analytic focus will be on (1) the different therapist practices used to orient to the client's distress, (2) the varying forms of client opposition to the therapist's attempts to work with the distress, and (3) the context sensitivity of orienting to distress and how certain practices may be uniquely shaped by what had occurred in prior talk. It was found that, whereas certain types of therapist responses tended to be endorsed by the client, others were forcefully rejected as inappropriate displays of understanding or empathy. By focusing on repeated sequential episodes over time in which a client conveys distress, followed by the therapist's response, this paper sheds light on the interactional trajectory through which a client and therapist are able to resolve impasses to emotional exploration and to successfully secure extended and intense emotional work.

Heart rate (HR) monitoring, which reflects exercise intensity and environmental factors, is often used for running strategies in marathons. However, it is difficult to obtain appropriate feedback for only the HR value since the cardiovascular drift (CV drift) occurs during prolonged exercise. The cardiac cost (CC HR divided by running velocity) has been shown to be a potential index for evaluation of CV drift during the marathon race. We sought to establish the relationship between recreational marathoners' racing strategy, cardiac drift, and performance. We started with looking for a trend in the speed time series (by Kendall's non-parametric rank correlation coefficient) in 280 (2 h30-3 h40) marathoners. We distinguished two groups, with the one gathering the large majority of runners (n = 215, 77%), who had a significant decrease in their speed during the race that appeared at the 26th km.
